Network Adapter can't connect - HELP!

I'm getting the infamous "Network adapter could not establish the connection" error
for my RDBMS realm. I am running WLS 6.1 on Win2k. What is really wierd is that
I have an instance of WLS 5.1 running on the same box and I don't see that problem.
This started about a week ago... I used to have 6.1 running, then it did this
for a day, then it ran and now it seems to be permanently unhappy. I've looked
through the newsgroup posts and everything in my setup seems OK.
Any ideas?
thanks,
lisa

I'm not positive on this, but it might be a encryption compatibility problem between your network and your AirPort Card.  I believe that OS 10.3.x is only capable of the basic encryption WEP, and not the the more modern encryptions WPA and WPA2.  I also think if you upgrade to 10.3.9, that might help get you into WPA encrpytion but it still not up to WPA2 that many modern networks now use.  Then there is 40 bit and 128 bit encryption, and I can't help you there with that.
There are two iMacs with a G4 1Ghz chip, the 15" model M9285LL/A or the 17" model M8935LL/A.  Both of these are AirPort Extreme ready.  Did you use an AirPort card or an AirPort Extreme card?  Perhaps this might be a conflict.
There are WiFi protocols like  IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n (with each letter signifying a different protocol).  I'm pretty sure the original AirPort card on worked on IEEE 802.11a/b.  That might be a problem.
I have an old Tangerine iBook running 10.2.8, that I can't use anymore on WiFi because it couldn't handle the encryption. 
I hope some of these might be helpful.
Good luck.

  • Can connect to my house network, but can't connect to the Internet (other computers can)

    Hello,
    I'm experiencing a strange problem. Since I started my Mac Pro (cold start) some hours ago, I've lost the hability to connect to the Internet (Safari and Mail say I'm not connected). However, I can connect to 192.168.2.1 (my router) and see its webpage (it says it's connected to the Internet). If I use another computer on the same network, it can also connect to the Internet.
    Weirder, if I go back to my Mac Pro with "no internet" and launch Parallels Desktop, then I can use WinXP to browse the Internet; I'm writing this post on my WinXP virtual machine.
    This leads me to think there's a problem with how my Mac OS handles the networking. I have checked the Console, but the only related string I found is this:
    16.04.13 22:03:25
    kernel
    SIOCPROTOATTACH_IN6: en2 error=17
    As expected, Google doesn't reveal anything about that (and I'm connected with the first ethernet port). I've tried to restart my Mac, but the problem persists (exact same symptoms).
    Could it be a DNS cache issue?
    I don't see, other than a DNS problem, why I can't connect to the Internet with my Mac OS while I can on my virtual machines. If it was a driver problem, I wouldn't be able to connect to my router. If it's a DNS issue, where are the DNS caches located in order to clear them (I'd trash the folder)?
    I could also reinstall the OS (waste of time, btw), but I'd really like to understand the problem, not just clear it and forget about it.
    Or better than guesses, anyone already experienced this?
    Any help welcome.

    If it's a DNS issue, where are the DNS caches located in order to clear them (I'd trash the folder)
    No DNS caches, it looks up the alphabetic and then uses the numberic from then on.
    http://17.149.160.49
    is Apple, Inc main US web site. It that works, and the alphabetic does not, you have a DNS probelm.

  • Network Adapter cannot establish connection

    Hello. I can't seem to find an answer to this anywhere: I have a database that can be accessed via JDBC from certain IP addresses but not others. The ones that can't access it give me the exeception: "Network Adapter cannot establish connection" The database machine can be PINGed from the client; the IP address of the database is used so it's not a name resolution problem; we are instatiating the driver correctly...AND it WORKS from other clients!
    Does anyone have any ideas as to what the problem could be?
    Thanks.

    If there are firewalls involved, connections on port 1521 have to be allowed.

    Hello lucky3480;
    I don't know what else to do. I'm thinking of possibly returning the unit and purchasing a wireless internet card to install in the tower. Any help you can provide would be great. Even suggesting a good wireless card at this point
    Well it looks like you're not having any luck at all with this AX set up but please don't give on it just yet, it's a good choice for extending your Network. Your on the right path, just going backwards and in the wrong direction. You'll learn a lot about stuff this way but may lead to other issues.
    Before I continue, let me know if you have returned the AX or still need help. Here's a link to Apple's PDF about [Designing AirPort Networks|http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/Designing_AirPort_Networks10.5-Windows.pdf] Click on it to open in Safari but then save it to your desktop. Now open it from your desktop and start reading Chapter 3, page 42.

  • Computer is connected to network but can't connect to internet (Safari and Chrome), e-mail, App Store, ect.

    My Macbook is connected to Wi-fi (four bars) but can't connect to the internet or any other services that requires internet. Other devices in my house have easily connected to the internet but every time I open Chrome it says: "This webpage is not available". What do I do?

    Restart your internet modem and router and your Mac then try Safari etc.
    If that doesn't help, try this DNS server ..

    Click + again and do the same.

  • Connected to network but can't connect to internet using wireless

    Hi, I just installed a Linksys WRT 45G and can connect my pc and my laptop to it and use the internet fine when I use ethernet cable, but if I try to use my laptop wirelessly I can't connect to the internet.  It says that I am connected to my network and that strength signal is excellent but no internet connection.  I have that bluetooth button on the front of the laptop turned on.  The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite with Centrino.  I was told that I don't need to buy a wireless card as the Centrino already does this.  Thanks in advance for your help. 

    I think you can try to update the firmware of the router, to check if that stops connection dropping. To update the firmware of router try this: 1. Go to www.linksys.com/download and select correct model number and version number. Download the firmware and save it on your computer. 2. Check the file it sould be firmware image file like .bin etc. If it is a compressed zip file extract it to get firmware image file. 3. Open setup page of router by typing http://192.168.1.1 in browser’s address bar, and typing password as "admin" and no user name. 4. Go to administartion tab there 5. Go to fimware update sub-tab there 6. Browse for the firmware image file and click update 7. when update completes turn off modem & router. 8. After 2 minutes turn on modem and after 2 more minutes turn on router. To get network key, connect your computer to one of the four ports on router using ethernet cable. 1. Open setup page of router by typing http://192.168.1.1 in browser’s address bar, and typing password as "admin" and no user name. Use your password if you have changed it earlier 2. Go to wireless tab. 3. Go to wireless security sub-tab 4. If security mode is wpa or wpa2 note down passphrase/shared key, if security mode is WEP note down wep key number 1. This will be your network key Well you need to input all the wireless settings of your wireless network on Wii. To get these settings: 1. Open setup page of router by typing http://192.168.1.1 in browser’s address bar, and typing password as "admin" and no user name. 2. Goto wireless tab. Here you will get the wireless network name/SSID. Here make sure wireless SSID broadcast is enabled. 3. Now goto wireless security sub-tab and here you will get the security mode and the security key. If security type is WPA note passphrase/shared key, and if its WEP note down wep encryption level and key 1 from listed 4 keys

  • WRT54G. Computer sees network but can't connect over wireless

    So I have a WRT54G router since a couple of years now.  Laptop (Win7 64bit), ipod, ipad, phones can connect to it without a problem, but new computer (Win7 64bit) can't.  I can connect the PC via ethernet without a problem though.
    I powercycled my devices, I changed broadcasting options off and then back on, changed my security mode, tried the MAC Cloning (after doing the MAC Cloning, I lost internet connectivity even through ethernet), resetted my security settings, changed SSID, I'm broadcasting through channel 11 2.462.  I also tried deleting the HomeGroup
    Important fact: the network is in the list of available wireless network, but Signal Strength is No Signal and I can't connect to it.
    My network adapter is ASUS 802.11n Wireless LAN Card, drivers are up to date.
    I've upgraded to the latest router firmware.
    I use a cable ISP.
    I've been looking at everyone else's posts with similar problem but none of the suggestions fixed my problem.  Anyone has an idea?  I'm no techie so I may be missing something important/obvious...   Thanks a lot for replies (please don't hijack!)

    As the concern is with your wireless connection and you have updated the firmware of the Router so once reset and reconfigure the Router... Since you are using Cable Connection refer the link for the configuration: http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&vw=1&articleid=3686
    As far as the wireless is concern make the channel to 6, 9 and 11...
    Under Advanced Wireless Settings change Beacon Interval to 75, Fragmentation Threshold to 2306, RTS Threshold to 2307...

  • Lone Mac in a PC networked office -- can't connect to the printer!

    Hello
    I know this is probably an easy answer, but I'm faced with an office filled with colleagues who can't help me and the company's computer technician knows nothing about how to help me. I've had no problem connecting to the network as far as the internet connection (satellite to router). But when I've asked about the printer, so I don't have to walk down the hall to use it, the technician has replied:
    +The printer is connected to Mark’s computer. You will need to download the driver from HP for the printer and install it. I am not very familiar with MAC’s so I don’t know the process for installing network printers. If you can browse the network for Mark’s computer the shared printer will appear and you should be able to connect to it. If you can’t the only other option is to install a print server and connect the printer to the print server. You will then be able to connect to the printer directly through the network. The cost of a print server is $179. Let me know if Sam would like this installed. Currently Mark’s computer must be on in order for other users to connect to his printer.+
    First, I am not too swift when it comes to figuring these things out cognitively; I have modest success simply flying by the seat of my pants. In this case, I've no idea what to look for, or where, in order to install the network printer, though I've read the "I can't print to a network printer" section in Mac Help. I believe I'm connected to the network--I am accessing the internet through the network router--but perhaps I'm not. (???)
    And do I need to download a driver from HP? I don't see the model we use in the listing "printer browser" Lots of models to choose from, but not the HP Color Laser CM1015 MFP.
    Sometimes I simply feel like an idiot on these magic boxes, but I'd like to appear to be on top of things for my pc colleagues, rather than simply in the dark. I've even gotten a new Apple discussion id, since I can't seem to change my previous alias (which happens to be my full name!).
    Ugh! Paul

    I've got it configured now, although I didn't think that the driver was typically contained in 92 MB of software. Thanks for that tip, but now I'm still faced with the networking issue. My airport is connected to the router, and I've managed to see the printer and host pc, and have configured the printer with printer set-up utility. I see it as an optional printer when I go to print, but now the print job simply disappears from the printing list after a moment or two and I find it in the completed jobs section (though nothing has printed out). Should I try one of the gimp options? I'd rather not have to pay a couple of hundred for a printer server if there's another way. Of course, I can always walk it down the hall for each print job.... Hmmm.

  • After 10.7.5 update, Bluetooth can't connect, help!

    I'd been using a BT speaker (Logitech Boombox) with more or less reliable connectivty with my MacBook Air (2012) (my Android phone never has a problem connecting to speaker), but after updating to 10.7.5 now, I can't connect to any BT device!  The MBA is paired to both devices (phone and speakers), but now won't connect to either.  I've tried to re-pair the devices, I've tried the "update services" trick, my MBA is "discoverable", yet nothing works.  It's not the speaker, as it connects fine with my Android phone.  Losing my mind on this one, please help!

    UPDATE, SOLVED?:  Somehow, it has magically fixed itself...I literally have no idea how, as I have spent 2 hours messing with it, it just started to work again and list itself as connected.  One idea is that perhaps the MBA wouldn't connect until it was "needed", i.e. until I tried to play something from ITunes?  But I had tried that before with no luck, soooo. Another Idea is that I had my HDMI hooked up while playing around, and perhaps that would try and take the audio signal instead of letting it go into the BT?...It's a mystery but at the moment, it works, knock on wood.

    I recomend turning off the router and the modem that you have and then turning them back on.
    If that doesn't work,
    Open system preferences > Network
    Go down to the bottom of the window and click Assist me
    A drop down window will come up and you want to click Diagnostics

  • Network Manager Can't Connect Wirelessly

    Hi everyone,
    I'm trying to migrate from Connman to Network Manager for my network needs (as well as from e17 to xmonad) and I'm seeing some strange behavior. I can get the network manager applet running, but it won't connect to any wireless networks. I see a bunch of networks floating around in the connections list, but if I click on one, nothing happens. Furthermore, if I try to connect by command line, I get the following weirdness
    Input:
    nmcli con up uuid f767eb89-ccbc-4dbe-bf12-af216ab8f9ff ap A0:21:B7:72:A3:CE
    (the uuid is for my wlan0 interface and the ap is the BSSID of my network).
    Output:
    Active connection state: activating
    Active connection path: /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/0
    ** (process:2012): WARNING **: _nm_object_get_property: Error getting 'State' for /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/0: (19) Method "Get" with signature "ss" on interface "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" doesn't exist
    state: unknown
    Error: Connection activation failed.
    I'm fairly sure that I have my policy kit working correctly. I have dbus and network manager as daemons and I logged in to an xmonad session using GDM, which should do my policy management for me, right?
    I think its the wrong error message for a policy kit error anyways.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance!

  • G5 Gigabyte Built-in Network Adapter won't connect at 1000

    Built-in ethernet adapter will not connect to DLink Gigabyte switch even with a known-good cable. My other G5 connects fine to the switch in the same port. Adapter connects fine to 100mb Linksys switch. Really looks like a driver problem. Is there an updated driver for the built-in adapter? Or is there another solution?
    Thanks

    adkcomputerguy-
    Greetings and welcome to the Apple boards.
    It won't connect at all or just at 1000T? Could be a driver but I would suspect the cable. Are you connecting directly to the switch?
    Have you ever been able to use this machine at gig speed? What happens if you connect the two G5's directly and make them their own network without a switch?

  • Federated Portal Network Blues - can not connect to WSRP producer

    Hi,
    I'd like to embed some JSR-168 portlets into my SAP EP but fail immediately when trying to add the WSRP content producer.
    I have a setup of two portals, one is SAP EP 2004s (SP13) and the other a JBoss Portal v2.6.4. I'd like to share my JBoss portlets to SAP and vice-versa for evaluating the interoperability of SAP systems with the real world.
    But alas, I'm struggling on the basic setup of my SAP EP...
    Here is my problem:
    When I configure a WSRP-producer it all seems to work right but I can not connect to it, e.g. I can not register and test the connection. The connection test fails because of :
    Producer object was found
    Could not retrieve the WSDL file; the handshake URL may not exist or may be invalid
    The SAP systems runs behind no proxy at all, so this can't be the issue. When testing the same WSRP producer URL from JBoss portal it all works fine. The URL I used was a WSRP test site from Oracle, see [http://portalstandards.oracle.com/portletapp/portlets?WSDL].
    Does anyone have a glue what might be missing on my SAP Portal? The standard log gives me no clues at all I've been tail minus effing the thing for hours...
    The SAP documentation - SAP Library, various E-Learning things - couldn't solve the problem for me...
    Thanks for your support!
    regards,
    Christian

  • Dying Airport Express?  Can see network, but can't connect

    I have an airport express bridged from my time capsule using wired ethernet. No problem with the TC. The AE will show up in the list of available networks (separate name) but I often can't connect to it using my iPhone. In Airport Utility I can't see it, either. The light is green, however.
    If I unplug it and replug it, it works again, however, and can be seen by Airport Utility, my iPhone, and laptop. It had been working brilliantly for a year set up this way, and I've had it for 3+ years with no real issues.
    Is this a dying AEx or are there other things I should look into.

    Yes, if I set "Security" to "None," the G4 can connect. But I set it up after I found my next-door neighbor's shared files folder listed on my network this morning. He's an OK guy, but it made me aware of how vulnerable my network is.
    My firmware is version 9.52. I've prowled the Apple site looking for an indication of whether that's the latest, but couldn't find one. My "Software Update" says everything's up-to-date.
